Mia Mallows Gourmet Marshmallows
These marshmallows are quite large and especially tender. I tasted too many varieties to describe them all (including Dulce de Leche, Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Chocolate Chip, Strawberry, Coconut, Maple, Pomegranate, Coffee, Peach, Pineapple and Raspberry). I liked the rainbow of colors here but many of the flavors did not taste true. Among the better varieties were the Coconut (white coconut shreds atop a white marshmallow), the pleasant Dulce de Leche (with a little bit of a visible caramel swirl in the marshmallow) and the Peanut Butter (a white marshmallow with pockets of hidden peanut butter, though there wasn’t enough peanut butter flavor).

Simply Southern Cupboard
A pretty shade of pink with darker pink areas, the slightly sticky-to-the-touch Peppermint mallows have a strong mint scent with a moderate peppermint flavor. The Vanilla are solidly good. The Chocolate are very good; they’re of a medium chocolate color, with tiny nuggets of chocolate in the base. A definite chocolate flavor results. On the large side and tender.
